Health Tips 1. In addition to being rich in potassium, vitamin C, and B complex, research has shown that cherry consumption can help the body prevent heart disease and cancer, as well as provide pain relief and improved bone health. These health benefits are possible due to the antioxidants found in cherries, the most vital of which are the flavonoids anthocyanins and quercetin, and the phenolic acid amygdalin. 2. According to researchers, a flavonoid found in cherries that has anticarcinogenic properties called quercetin can help to prevent heart disease. Cherries are considered a nutritionally significant source of quercetin, containing large quantities per serving that surpass most fruits. 3. A phenolic acid called amygdalin, also termed Vitamin B17 and laetrile, found in the kernels of cherries and other fruits, has been shown to reduce tumor size and further spread of cancer, as well as to alleviate the pains of the cancerous process. Populations such as the Hunza in Pakistan that have always incorporated amygdalin into their diets have remained cancer free, leading scientists to believe that its consumption could also be a powerful cancer prevention food. 4. Anthocyanins found in cherries also block inflammatory enzymes, reducing pain. In fact, 20 cherries are 10 times as potent as aspirin and have positive effects on gout and arthritis pain. 5. Sweet cherries are also considered to be excellent sources of boron, providing 396 ug/100g. Boron consumption, coupled with calcium and magnesium has been linked to increased bone health. 6. Tart cherries naturally pack a health-promoting punch that provides pain relief for many consumers. Ongoing research shows that tart cherries are a rich source of antioxidants, including melatonin, which may help to relieve the pain of arthritis, gout, and possibly fibromyalgia. To date, no other fruit or vegetable has been found to have the pain relieving properties of tart cherries. In addition, the antioxidants in tart cherries can help fight cancer and heart disease.

Rocking fruit!" -- RLB, Vegas "I'm a new customer and have placed 3 orders in the past 30 days. I love the tart cherries. They are chewy yet fresh and perfectly tart. The organic freeze-dried Granny Smith apple pieces are also wonderful: they're a healthy, light yet satisfying snack that isn't super sweet. If you like your fruit on the tart side, I highly recommend both the cherries and the Granny apple pieces. I also bought the mixed fruit assortment as a holiday gift for colleagues, and it was surprisingly super fresh and soft.Delivery was good, too. Received both orders in the 5 business days as promised. I will definitely order again." -- Roberta "WOW!! I came back for more and was NOT disappointed!

I made my frappuccinos and smoothies at home at with the syrups and all the things I can make...I will definitely recommend you and you will be the place to go from nuts to candy...Thank You so much...I love you guys...." -- Grace, Flushing, New York "I was searching the internet for a good place to order jumbo raisins, when I happened upon your delightful website. The pictures and descriptions sounded wonderful, and the personal testimonials secured my choices. I ordered dried cherries for my mom for mother's day and she said they were softer and tastier than any she's had. I got dried organic mango and jumbo flame raisins for myself. The mango? Out of this world, exploding with flavor. I took a chance on ordering a 30-# box of raisins, and I'm glad I did. Not only did I save money, but I have a supply to last long into the future--of soft, sweet, delicious raisins. Thank you so much and I will definitely order again. Kearsten Frye" -- Kearsten, Blanchardville, WI "I just received my first order of sour (tart) cherries and know they will become a favorite and I'm impressed with the fast delivery to me in Pago Pago, American Samoa." -- Faye, Pago Pago, AS Leave online feedback to share your thoughts with other customers!
